I'll tell you what I know about music copyright, but I'm no attorney. First, you should generally stay away from cover songs. Even if it is noncommercial, as far as I know you still need to get the music licensed, and we all know music licensing is a huge pain. If you're dead set, these links may he...

Played violin for 10+ years. Wrote music for 1 year. Finally figured out what counterpoint is.
Thanks for the post!

Cool idea! Maybe sharing unfinished work would be motivating. I listened to both of your songs, and I really like them. They sound exactly like what you promised. An anime opening and a sad ending song. Can't wait for you to finish Scarlett! And just my opinion, but why don't you gate the cymbals a ...

Does anyone feel like Angel Beats! was lacking in character development? It wasn't the worst anime ever, but it was such a huge disappointment that I believe it deserves a spot here.

Hey! I'm not exactly what you might call experienced, but I can tell you about my approach. When I first started composing music, I studied other people's intros, and then I copied their structures.

Most of the time, creators will let it slide, but just to be on the safe side, stick to CC music. You weren't very specific about the songs you wan...

I'm sure that any modern DAW is sufficient for making VN music. As others have said, no DAW can only create this kind of music, and provided you know the DAW well, you can create anything. I personally use Cubase Elements 8 because it comes with everything you need in a fairly simple design, and it ...

Hey Aviala! I've played violin for roughly 11 years now, studied music theory, and have been interested in composing BG music, so your sister and I seem to be on the same boat! Since you don't know much about composing, I'll run you through the basics of what I know (I don't know much T.T I've only ...

EDIT: I misread the question Personally, I use a program called Cubase (the only reason being that it came with my sound card purchase from Steinberg). I've been using Cubase Elements 8 for around 3 months now. Yes, it's not free, but for ~$100, it's a really easy to use program for beginners and re...
